    kernel - Update existing csprng
    
    * Bring the current csprng up-to-date as per the author.  However, note
      that we will likely be making additional commits to add other csprng
      algorithms to the system.
    
      - Change stateIndex to a static instead of starting at 0 each time
        to improve security.
    
      - Move the L_SCHEDULE(keyLen) to the end.
    
      - Warm-up the IBAA in the entropy interrupt.  Author suggested warming
        it up before each read_random() but that creates a non-deterministic
        performance problem.
    
    * Change read_random_unlimited() from L15_Byte() to IBAA_Byte().
      read_random() already uses IBAA_Byte().  That is, go with the
      heavier-weight csprng for everything (sysctl, /dev/urandom, /dev/random).
      Before only /dev/random was using the heavier-weight csprng.
